been suffering with my heart Breathing
had become short and difficult at times,

There are many symptoms of heart disease,
which so closely resemble those of more com
mon nervous disorders as to frequently mis
lead the attending physician. Often in cases
of heart trouble the stomach, kidneys, liveror
lungs become affected. Again the symptoms
may be those of weakened nerves, as tired
feeling, sleeplessness, timidity, the patient is
easily excitable and apt to worry without
cause. If you have the least suspicion that
your heart is weak study your symptoms and

from the Southern Farmer Magazine, published in Baltimore, about a work
ing farmer in Piorce county, Ga., may be encouraging to those who yet
have enough of the old time spirit of the fathers to dare to follow the plow
or weed the corn :
"Mr. Ben Guest, who does most of his own work, sold $ 612 worth of Sea
Island cotton from 22 acres of land, $200 worth of cane and syrup from
one and one-quarter acres, after reserving enough seed cane to plant one
and one-half acres ; $100 worth of sweet potatoes, after saving all that he
required for his family and stock, and $104 worth of dressed pork, with all
the bacon and lard that he needed. Ha gathered, moreover, 500 bushels
of corn and 15,000 pounds of oats."
t t I t
Perhaps nothing interests an Eastern North Carolina farmer more just
now than estimates, guesses and facts about the cotton crop and the prices
it will bring this season. And as many ot the
The Co tton Outbo. readera o Thb commonwealth are Eastern Car
olina farmers we think the following from the Charlotte Observer will in- "
terest them :
"Mr. W. L. Wells, of Vicfcsburg, Miss., a cotton merchant of high stand
ing, is at the Buford Hotel. Being asked about cotton he demurred against
talking for publication. Being assured that The Observer wanted his views
for its cotton mill subscribers, Mr. Wells said : 'To begin with, the short
interest began in the latter part of May and June by European spinners
buying cotton for delivery in fall and winter months on a basis of 10 cents
and as a hedge they have sold futures in Liverpool and American markets.
Following'this a large n'amber of planters continued sales down to 9 on a
pure speculation. Those short interests being known by New York parties
they formed a clique to put the market up to I0 cents. The main pur
pose was to get cotton up to 10 cents, or a point where ftiey could feel
safe to sell short. In doing this they created a stampede among the South
ern sellers and Eurorjeans and I believe cotton is to-day to 1
cent higher than the bull clique expected to push it. I believe all the
bull clique are now selling it short on every advance and the larger opera
tors of the South are also selling.'
" 'What about the crop?' was asked. 'I think the crop is a good one.
The late reports of damages are greatly exaggerated. All the States outside
of Texas will matte 10 to 25 per cent, more cotton than last year. Some
of the Statesjwill make record-breaking crops. I am sure this State will
make25 to 33 per cent, more cotton than last year.
" 'What is a fair estimate of the crop at the present time, taking all
chances into consideration ?'
"He answered promptly : 'Twelve million bales. Adverse weather condi
tions from this time on might reduce this to 11 million bales, but not
less. On the other hand, favorable weather conditions, meaning a dry,
open fall and late frost, might make a crop that would be limited only by
the amount the farmers and planters could get picked. This might go to
12$ million bales.'
" 'What about labor for the cotton farms?'
" 'The labor question in our section, the Mississippi and Louisiana low
lands he said 'is simply this : If the negro can make more money in the
cotton field picking cotton than in other work, he will quit other work
and pick cotton. He is mercurial and perapatetlc. If the cotton crop is
good and be finds white fields he will pick cotton and be pleased to do so.
It is more difficult to get a thin crop picked than a full one. If cotton
is poor and thin the darkey will quit the cotton patch in one night and go
to the levees and the railroads. If it is a fine crop he leaves the public
works and goes to the field to pick cotton which he really likes for work
when cotton is thick and full."

"I DIDN'T THINE;'
If all the troubles in the world
Were traced back to the start,
We'd find not one tn ten begun
From want of willing heart.
But there's a sly; woe-working elf,
Who lurks about youth's brink,
And sure dismay be brings away
The elf, "I didn't think."
He seems so sorry when he's caught,
His mein is all contrite,
He so regrets the woe he's wrought,
And wants to make things right.
But wishes do not heal a wound,
Nor weld a brofcen link ;
The heart aches oj, the link is gone
All through "I didn't think."
When brain is comrade to the heart,
And heart from soul draws grace,
"I didn't think" will quick depart
For lack ot resting place.
If from the great, unselfish stream,
The golden rule we drink,
We'll keep God's laws and have no cause
To say, "I didn't think."

When Beauty Fades.
Selected.
Hamilton W. Mabie always is inter
esting and in his literary talk to girls
he is especially so. The following sen
sible suggestions from Mr. Mable's
page in the Ladies' Home Journal will
be appreciated by Home Circle readers :
"What shall I read?" is a much
more important question than "What
shall I wear?'' but it is to be feared
that many girls think otherwise. It is
just as much one's duty to be attrac
tive as to be good,' and dress and man
ners are of much greater importance
than some people suppose.
We have not only to live in this
world, but we haye also to liye with
others. Half the pleasure of living
comes lrom our relations with others
from the varietv, interest, charrh
which they bring us. It is one of our
best pieces of good fortune to live in a
community in which the people are
Intelligent, well-dressed, courteous and
interesting, and it is every one's duty
to help, make such a community by
being intelligent, well dressed, courte
ous and interesting. The man who
thinks he is showing u peri or strength
o character by being churlish simply
revea's his ignorance.
Beauty often goes early in Hie, and
there are few more pathetic figures
than the women who have lest it and
have nothing to put in Its place. The
wise girl lays up a store of attractions
against the time when those with
which she started may be lost, and
there is no better way of making one's
self than by constant reading of good
books. One of the finest compliments
ever paid a woman was the remark of
an eminent man concerning a well
know a woman of bis time, that to
know her was a liberal education.
No woman can have the quality ot
mind which makes association with
her not only delightful but stimulat
ing and educational, unless she is well
read ; and the well read woman mutt
read constantly and with intelligence.
The Old and The New Farm.
Selected.
Fifty years ago commercial fertili
zers guano, gypsum, superphosphate
of lime, etc. were unknown in the
South. Drills and reapers were scarce
'y heard of, and were regarded simply
as curiosities. There were no such
thing as rotation of crops, the sowing
of cloyer or the use of green crops for
renoyating the soil. Crop succeeded
crop until the soil ceased to nroduce,
and then the land was abandoned and
turned out to grow up In briars and
broomsedge.
Land was then so cheap and so
abundant that it required less to pur
chase new land than to reclaim old.
This has all been changed. The best
virgin soils have been occupied, and
the old-time farmer finds that his
"clearings" trust come to an end. The
coming farmer and thi one who will
reap the richest rewards will be he who
can have the largest manure piles, the
best meadows and the finest stock.
Tillage must give place, to soma ex
tent, to grass, and toil on the farm in
a large measure to skill in managing
stock.

TO TELL AGE OF A H03SE.
Lower Front Teeth Are Always
Good Indications.
Baltimoie Sun.
At public pales one sec3 so many
old horses sold for young ones that be
who can tell their age feels no little
sympathy for a neighbor who buys a
fourteen-year old and pays a six-year-old
pi ice for it. Nearly every one can
tell a very old horse from a very young
one. Fietquently one s?es a sleek, fat,
high-Hied animal passing, from gener
al appearance, for a five or six-year-old
that is fully twice as old.
A neighbor has a poor, run down
mare, four this spring, and the "gener
al appearance" judge would say "she
is fifteen, anyhow." General appear
ances are no criterion. Neither are
the eyes, nor the tbsks. as some claims
Sonr.e who assume to be authorities on
the horses say that "a horse's teeth are
no index to its age." But I differ
from such authority.
The lower front teetb, if healthy
and natural, are practically an accur
ate guide. A yearling has very ebort
teeth, with deep cups in center, the
two end ones being shorter than the
others.
A two-year-old has short teeth, with
comparatively 6ba'Iov cups.
A three-year-old has two long teeth
in center, with two short or "colt"
teetb on either side.
A lour year-old has four long teeth,
with onn short one on either side.
A five year-old has six long terlb,
with deep cups in centers.
A six-year-old has shallow cups in
the two center teeth.
A seven-year-old has the center teeth
worn nearly smooth, cups of second
pair shallow.
An eight-year-old is commfiB'y
spoken of as a "smooth-mouthed"
horse ; i. e., no cups. As the animal
grows older the teoth become worn in
proportion. The corner of the end
teeth become rounded.
To tell the age with any degree of
accuracy beyond twelve requires much
experience and the examination of
many seta of teeth.

Self-Pity is Deadly.
Twentieth Century Home.
Self-pity is the mark of deteriorat
ing character. It is a sure sign of the
dominance of egotism arid of the dc
cay of moral vitality. So long as you
retain a sense of proportion, so long as
your mind is healthy and your judg
ment sound, you will never sink into
the mental slough of those who are
sell-pitying. You have a buoyancy, a
good-humor and a generosity ot spirit
which enable you to give and take
without any residuum of malice, and
to recognize the rights and wrongs of
others as clearly as you recognize your
own. If things go amiss, and keep on
getting worse, you rouse yourself up to
face the inevitable with courage and a
stout heart. Meet misfortune in the
spirit of the fighter, of the knight who
is not only brave but debonair, and
even ii in the end you are beaten, you
keep your sell-respect and the respect
of others. You are like a general who
yields to overwhelming numbers, and
then draws off his forces in good order
defeated but not demoralized, and
ready at some luture time to light
again. Eyen if ill success should make
you stern and bareh and unforgiving,
this is not a hopeless state of mind, for
it is at least compatible with strength ;
and if prosperity return once more,
then the old hopefulness and the old
geniality wil' reassert themselves, j ist
as the buds and blossoms force their
way into the world when the warm
spring sunshine puts an end to winter.
But if you let youreelf sink into the
fateful habit of self-pity, then there is
absolutely no return for you, no resto
ration, no renewal of sanity ; you slide
down and down the slope, losing bit by
bit your moral fioer, your intellectual
courage and your self-respect.

Naming Farms Farm Stationery.
Wallace Farmer.
No first-class farmer should t'jiuk
lor a moment of going without farm
stationery ; that is, letter heads on
which is printed his name, the name
of the farm, the postoffice and the
number of the rural route, and return
envelopes with bis name and address
printed thereon.
Every farm should have a name
wnich should be a part of the rddrecs
The natre of the farm should be part
of the address. The name of the farm
should be a matter for a family coun
cil. It should be short, if possible
significant of the character of the
farm, and should be different from the
name of any other farm in the neigh
borbood.
Why should thij be done? First, it
makes the man himself and his family
feel better. The cow is all the better
for having a name ; the horse must
have one of necessity. The farm
should have a name. A man thinks
more ol a farm properly named than
he does of the same farm without o
name. It will not bring a bushel
more grain per acre, nor a pound more
of bay, but nevertheless tbe farmer
will think more of bis larm if he goes
to tbe trouble of giving it a name.
The man who receives a letter writ
ten on paper with tbe name, postomce,
and rural route printed thereon is
always more favorably impressed than
if written on a piece Ct blank paper.
He says to himself, that the man it
more than an ordinary farmer. He
understands his business. He takes ,
pride in his farm. His stationer
shows this.
The object of a letter is to make a
favorable impression and tbe printed
letter-head and stationery helps to
make this impression. The leceiyer
will always give the farmer credit for
being a better business man if he re
ceives from him a letter written on ap
propriate farm stationery.
